Well yesterday was indeed a good day, until I was forced to shove a 6'5" 35ish man out a door, while face to face with an opposing 6'2" man screaming in my face, " Let's go, I will take this outside, let's go. " Let me tell you standing on 3" heels with a 5'6" build is really a challenge when you have beer and adrenaline pushing on every ounce of your tired body. What are people thinking? This is Jericho Vermont! Why can't we all be happy, the sun is shining and has been for over 12 hours, there were no thunderstorms to cloud our minds, and people are on vacation with their families enjoying a night of dancing to the 80's they grew up to. I guess the real issue is that people need an excuse to do anything. Why not calmly sit down and discuss the reason their 6wk old baby was standing being cradled to sleep 5 ft away from a pounding beats of Billy Idol or Y.M.C.A! Yeah I know you're thinking why was the baby there in the first place? Well they were eating food at 10pm, but the manager on duty as well as ourselves ( bartenders/waitresses) might have suggested that they leave. But the child was asleep. Either that or so stressed from the beat, he had no choice to fall asleep, that is after all a stress response in animals. Needless to say no blood was shed, the situation was apprehended and the baby left the dance floor.
The argument: the family with the baby has had 4 kids, the women who had the guts to complain, had tried to conceive for 2 years and had 1.. This was her first time out with her husband in 4 years alone. Which one is the better parent? That's up to the individual, but my bet is the latter.
Being a bartender is a fun and fast paced lifestyle, you have to love to chat it up even when your sinuses are screaming at you and every time the base speaker thumps so does your eye sockets. And it is a mentally challenging. Their are a lot of wonderful people out there and they have their issues like the rest of us, but this is Jericho, Vt , don't be in my face when you're 6'5" asking for a fight. We're a peaceful town and work on resolving our issues with conversation other then explicatives.
